What's ur guyes favorite set? I'm talking the set you use 80% to 95% most of the time. And explain why it's ur favorite. I will start.

Double dirthole set


I like it because 2 holes makes the coyote or fox move around. I have never caught one though. Sometimes I will even make 2 holes and separate them and put a trap in the middle. I also like trench sets.

My favorite set is the one that catches the k9.

Dear Lord.

Think I’ll take a break from this site until a mod steps in…this is ridiculous

The jumping coyote set is probably the best for me but you have to use the right lure to make it work efficiently. I like because it gets noticed from a distance and gets a lot of intrest. Also not to many coyotes in my area have seen it..

Ok thank you

Me or the people saying all the "the one that catches k9s is the best"

That isn't very helpful information is it

No not at all

Just trying to learn and people do this. This is why some people leave this site for good I bet.

You want helpful information NTO I’ll give you some. You state being a member of the PTA well this state probably has more trapper training based events then 90% of the other states and many conventions with top notch trappers doing demos all day long. Get yourself to a few of them. Can find information on them on the Pennsylvania Trappers Association website.

Don't leave now kid, you've weathered most of the storm. It will just get easier from here on out.

For me, it depends a lot on the location, travel way, terrain features, etc. But I'm trapping in wooded settings. I use a lot of natural features for flat sets. The end of a log laying out into a logging road is probably my favorite. I've only caught a handful of coyotes in my few yrs of trapping and I don't think any have been in a traditional dirt hole.

Ok

Double dirt hole works best for me, some guys swear by the trench set I cannot get a coyote to step down in the trench . Funny to watch a coyote on camera looking at the trench like what in the world is this.

Can Sharon be commissioned to do a detailed illustration of this great set? I’m hoping for something reminiscent of Wiley Coyote and the Roadrunner from the ‘70s

That’s because most diggings look like a trench. Never seen a coyote just dig a hole unless it’s in a bank of some sort.

Probably going to offend some but it is what it is
